Williams and they were blessed with seven children. Letava, was a stay at home mother until the children were in school. She later went to work at Tinker field for twenty-seven years and retired. In 1964, she united with Siloam Missionary Baptist Church, where she served as assistant secretary director for the youth, training union director, and prayer band leader. She earned the honor of being able to lead those old 100 hymns of which the church missed so very much. Among the faithful, she always kept a happy smile and was very supportive of the church in general. A person full of life and very helpful to the senior citizens that was one of her special calling's. SPECIAL SAYING: "I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." "I might give out but I won't give up."
